What affects the price in Sutton-on-the-Forest

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sutton-on-the-Forest. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Sutton-on-the-Forest: your questions answered

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your YO61 postcode.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sutton-on-the-Forest as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
